Investors look at level of interest, hit counts, threads, posts, in general the activity of the fan base. Sorry Chivas, but you are off the mark with your assumption, there is just too much interest for the investors to abandon...There are very few of us who will stop monitoring the development, no matter what they might claim out of their present anger. Il-2 is a natural survivor even in this a depressed world economy, because it is very unique.

I agree that he investors would benefit from a long successful series, which I've said a hundred times, BUT if the Sequel fails there is little chance the IC investors will keep supporting the devs and losing millions of dollars.
